SkiClass, ski school in Baqueira: the best choice for your ski trip

So why Baqueira? If you are planning a ski trip there are many options, in Spain and in the nearby Alps, and countless factors that will influence your choice.

We will try to set out some points as objectively as possible so you can consider Baqueira as one of your top options. You can find more information on the resort’s website.

Baqueira is in a valley with an Atlantic climate, and year after year it proves that snow quality and quantity are practically guaranteed: heavy snowfall and cold temperatures make it Spain’s freeride paradise.

The resort keeps growing and adds skiable kilometres every year to match the great European resorts: 169 km of runs spread over 127 pistes and 36 lifts, a top altitude of 2,610 m, around 1,100 m of vertical drop and, more importantly, 2,273 hectares of skiable terrain.

Baqueira lies in the privileged Aran Valley, a unique valley full of history, with a rich Romanesque heritage of more than 30 churches, most of them built between the 12th and 13th centuries.

The Aran Valley has its own language, Aranese, which has been preserved throughout history as one of the hallmarks its inhabitants are proudest of.

Thanks to its long tradition of tourism, its food is well worth highlighting: all along the valley there are restaurants of every kind, from the most traditional Aranese cooking to carefully crafted signature cuisine.

For these and many other reasons, Baqueira is one of those resorts that deserve a visit. You won’t regret it.
